“Tum khatam ho jaoge, Miya zinda rehne wale”: Owaisi
Asaduddin Owaisi on April 2 drew sharp political reactions while addressing a rally in Morigaon, Assam, as the state prepares for upcoming elections. Speaking to supporters, he said, “You will be finished, Muslims will stay alive,” a remark that intensified the already heated atmosphere.
Owaisi was in Assam campaigning for Badruddin Ajmal and his party, the All India United Democratic Front, aiming to consolidate minority votes in key regions. He framed his statement as a response to earlier comments made by Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma regarding the community.
Emphasising the political significance of Muslims in Assam, Owaisi highlighted their resilience and urged them to participate actively in the electoral process. His remarks have further sharpened political tensions in the state, with critics accusing him of divisive rhetoric, while supporters argue he was asserting community rights and responding to previous statements.
